Left, Right or Center? Asian American Voters in 2014

Published on Oct 07 2014

The data on Asian American public opinion reveals that Asian American voters are “up for grabs” in terms of party identification. Given that the Asian American electorate is still making up its mind on political parties, it is surprising to still find low rates of electoral contact. Ethnic media is an important source of political information, especially for Chinese American and Vietnamese American voters. Asian Americans tend to favor the Democratic Party on many key issues. Overall, voter enthusiasm is the same than before.
